‘Twas the night before Christmas, the circuits all hummed, While data streams danced and algorithms drummed. The servers all glowed, a digital fire, As code elves toiled, fueled by caffeine’s desire. In homes and in offices, screens flickered bright, Investors tracked markets, with anxious delight. Charts and graphs danced, a technical ballet, As portfolios soared, or sadly went astray. The startups all hustled, their pitches ablaze, Pitch decks and prototypes, vying for praise. VCs with keen eyes, sifted through the hype, Seeking the next unicorn, to take their portfolio’s flight. The Bitcoin miners, in their digital caves, Searched for the blocks, through the blockchain’s deep waves. Their rigs hummed and whirred, a symphony of heat, As they dreamt of riches, and a Lambo to meet. The NFT artists, with mouses so swift, Crafted digital treasures, with pixels so deft. Jpegs of apes, and cats with laser eyes, Sold for millions, to the world’s surprise. The gamers all battled, in worlds of their own, With pixelated heroes, and quests to be known. Esports arenas roared, with digital cheers, As champions crowned, shed victory tears. But amidst the pixels, and the code’s whirring hum, A lesson still whispered, “There’s more to life than the sum.” For true wealth, it whispered, lies not in the screen, But in love, connection, and what truly has been. So raise a glass, friends, to the tech and the trend, But remember the heart, that’s where stories transcend. May your portfolios flourish, and your circuits stay bright, And may your future be merry, and filled with pure light. Happy holidays, and to all a good night! |
